Examination Syllabi for 1St Class and 2Nd Class Radio- Electronics Certificates for the Gmdss System ERC REPORT 24 European Radiocommunications Committee (ERC) within the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) EXAMINATION SYLLABI FOR 1ST CLASS AND 2ND CLASS RADIO- ELECTRONICS CERTIFICATES FOR THE GMDSS SYSTEM Nicosia, March 1994 Copyright 1994 the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) ERC REPORT 24 Page 1 EXAMINATION SYLLABI FOR 1ST CLASS AND 2ND CLASS RADIO-ELECTRONICS CERTIFICATES FOR THE GMDSS SYSTEM The start of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) in February 1992 has made it necessary to harmonise the examination requirements for certificates of maritime radio operators. Article 55 of the ITU Radio Regulations specifies the conditions governing the issue of GMDSS certificates for the personnel of ship stations and ship earth stations, and Article 56 also requires Administrations to ensure that the personnel of ship stations and ship earth stations operating in accordance with the GMDSS are adequately qualified to enable efficient operation of the station. Provisions of the GMDSS, closely related to the Maritime Mobile Service and the Maritime Mobile-Satellite Service, are also given in IMO Conventions, notably the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). The International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watch keeping (STCW) also regulates the conditions for the issue of GMDSS certificates. The GMDSS is to be fully implemented by February 1999 for vessels subject to SOLAS. Harmonised examination procedures for the General Operator's Certificate (GOC) and Restricted Operator's Certificate (ROC) have already been introduced for maritime radio operators performing radiocommunication duties on board vessels subject to SOLAS under ERC Recommendation 31-03. The syllabi contained in Recommendation 31-03 was created in close cooperation with IMO secretariat. The IMO Sub-Committee on Standards, Training and Watch keeping (STW) has agreed to consider, in its comprehensive review of the STCW Convention, whether the STCW Regulations, instead of cross-referencing in Chapter IV to certificates issued in accordance with the Radio Regulations, should contain all the knowledge and training requirements for the issue of radio certificates rather than, as at present, only the additional safety requirements. The STW Sub-Committee has already agreed that the CEPT GOC and ROC examination syllabi should be broadened into international standards by using them as a basis for the development of GMDSS model training courses. The CEPT arrangements for issuing GMDSS certificates to holders of non-GMDSS certificates were also used as the basis of the IMO Assembly Resolution A.769(18) of November 1993. Several countries reported their preference to have a radio electronics certificate holder on board when sailing in sea areas A3/4 instead of using one of the additional alternatives of equipment duplication or shore based maintenance. They felt that communications duties in A3/4 areas needed the skills of a radio-electronics certificate. Other countries noted the difficulties that had been experienced with trying to define standards for shore-based maintenance companies and that similar qualifications could be useful for shore based maintenance personnel. The 39th meeting of the IMO Sub-Committee on Radiocommunications had also called for repair and installation personnel to be better trained in order to reduce the excessive number of false alerts - many of which turn out to be associated with servicing and installation tests. The IMO secretariat requested the work to be extended to examination syllabi for GMDSS Certificates to include the 1st and 2nd Class Radio-electronics Certificates in the hope that a generic family of syllabi could be produced in the CEPT format. The intention was that syllabi for all four GMDSS Certificates defined in the Radio Regulations would form the basis of IMO Model Courses and would be linked with the revision of the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watch keeping (STCW). This report describes the examination syllabi for the issue of 1st Class and 2nd Class Radio-electronics Certificates. Since these syllabi are of interest only to a small number of CEPT administrations, they are presented in the form of a report instead of a recommendation. The syllabus for 1st class Radio-electronics Certificate is in annex 1. The syllabus for 2nd class Radio-electronics Certificate is in annex 2.

  • Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) Handbook 2018 I CONTENTS
    FOREWORD This handbook has been produced by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), and is intended for use on ships that are: • compulsorily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations in accordance with the requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea Convention 1974 (SOLAS) and Commonwealth or State government marine legislation • voluntarily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations. It is the recommended textbook for candidates wishing to qualify for the Australian GMDSS General Operator’s Certificate of Proficiency. This handbook replaces the tenth edition of the GMDSS Handbook published in September 2013, and has been amended to reflect: • changes to regulations adopted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) World Radiocommunications Conference (2015) • changes to Inmarsat services • an updated AMSA distress beacon registration form • changes to various ITU Recommendations • changes to the publications published by the ITU • developments in Man Overboard (MOB) devices • clarification of GMDSS radio log procedures • general editorial updating and improvements. Procedures outlined in the handbook are based on the ITU Radio Regulations, on radio procedures used by Australian Maritime Communications Stations and Satellite Earth Stations in the Inmarsat network. Careful observance of the procedures covered by this handbook is essential for the efficient exchange of communications in the marine radiocommunication service, particularly where safety of life at sea is concerned. Special attention should be given to those sections dealing with distress, urgency, and safety. Operators of radiocommunications equipment on vessels not equipped with GMDSS installations should refer to the Marine Radio Operators Handbook published by the Australian Maritime College, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. No provision of this handbook or the ITU Radio Regulations prevents the use, by a ship in distress, of any means at its disposal to attract attention, make known its position and obtain help.
